What a way to spend the day we start our hike at 8 am with a guide named Gaylee. We couldn't have asked for a better guide. My wife and I are moderately fit and Gaylee was courteous and patient as you will need a...More

Incredible! We had to crawl up on some parts it's not all just walking. The tropical vines that you have to cling to makes it fun. The tropical foliage is beautiful! For the first 500 feet up there are these tiny spiders that build webs...More

I did this hike about 8 AM with a friend. It was tougher than I thought and I am fairly fit. The top was cloudy so we did not get to see great views but it was still worth the hike. Be sure to sign...More

For reasonably experienced and fit mountain hikers, approx 1.5 hours up and same down, no guide needed. Not technical climbing, but as steep, slippery and treacherous as hiking trails get. Bring gloves suited for grabbing ropes. Jungle cover along entire trail. Directions: heading North on...More

I can only speak to the trip we went on, but this is NOT a leisurely hike. I am in decent shape and this thing kicked my butt. Over 2 miles up and the majority is hand over hand pulling yourself up rock inclines and...More

There are several different styles of hikes, one to the top and several others that are geared towards less climbing and more just hiking. We did the Nevis Peak hike/climb and it was challenging but doable if you are at all fit. Get a good...More

We decided that we couldn't visit Nevis without climbing to the top of Nevis Peak (3232ft). We left the hotel at 7 am and after a short taxi ride we met our guide Gailey who guided us up the peak. It was a challenging hike/climb...More
